In this litigious country, it’s hard to believe that Kenvue, the manufacturer of Tylenol, can’t sue RFK Jr. into oblivion for his claims about the product that are not based on scientific research.

“Their goal is to instill fear, to make you feel helpless, hopeless, to break you down. Don’t let them. Educate yourself. Organize. Speak truth to authority. Because the story’s not written — the pen is in your hand.”

It’s not about Jimmy Kimmel. It’s about the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. If you diminish the importance of this situation, you have completely missed the point of a constitutional democratic republic.

So Tom Homan is a crook. My jaw did not hit the floor. I would like for him to face justice in a post American fascism era. The horrors persist.

The headlines about Jimmy Kimmel and ABC trying to reach a compromise that would allow his show to come back on the air make me uneasy. Any compromise with fascists or their toadies is a net gain for fascism.

The parallels are as clear as Bob Iger’s cowardice.

Trump name checking Orwell as an “incredible” and “unbelievable” person is among the most offensive things Trump has ever said, and that bar is in outer space.

As always, Trump demands total loyalty from “his” people and provides zero loyalty to them.

I don’t think it is in the public interest to toss the First Amendment into the dustbin of history.

These are the words of a tyrant.

“Nazis. I hate these guys.” - Indiana Jones

“We're up against a crisis I never thought I'd see in my lifetime: a dictator-like attack by President Donald Trump on everything this country stands for." - Robert Redford, 2019

I just saw Senator Tina Smith (D-MN) talking bout working on legislation that would essentially reiterate rights that are already spelled out in the Constitution. The GOP controls both Houses and Trump is president. This is just masturbatory bullshit.

I just saw a clip from this morning with Chuck Schumer asking “Where are our Republican colleagues?” Either he is dumb as a bag of hammers or he is just as performative as the Republicans.

Yep, that tracks.

“I know tomorrow brings the consequence at hand, but I keep livin’ this day like the next will never come.”

“Will no one rid me of this meddlesome late night talk show host?”

“Melania…wake up.”

Andrew Weissman is a very intelligent and very nice man. Unfortunately, his worldview seems to be not only pre-Trump, but pre-Fox News.

Disney will apparently have to get the White House’s approval for all their movies and programming going forward.

I’m glad that Tony Gilroy got to complete “Andor”. I want the series on physical media because there is a nonzero probability that Disney+ will drop it from its service.

I can’t comprehend the appeal of being Nazi adjacent.

Pam Bondi’s law degree came from Stetson University College of Law. She isn’t doing her alma mater any favors.

Head of the FBI in name only.

This song is still relevant in Mississippi in September 2025.

The House and Senate Republicans are OK with anything Trump does…ANYTHING!

Prior to Trump, Richard Nixon was the most diabolical hater to be president in my lifetime. He would never have expressed such hate toward such a huge swath of the electorate.

The “Don’t Tread on Me” crowd is more than willing to trade freedom for a dictator who shares their bigotry.

At best, Trump would ask: Who did his parents vote for? At worst, Trump would ask: Who did he vote for?

A supporter of Donald Trump attempted to kill Gov. Shapiro and his family by setting fire to the Pennsylvania Governor’s Residence five months ago.

This guy makes Neville Chamberlain look like a hardass.

Yesterday, while facing questions in the Senate, FBI Director Kash Patel stated that there is no credible information that Jeffrey Epstein trafficked girls to anyone other than himself. Patel does not consider any of Epstein’s victims to be credible.

I remember going with my parents to the drive-in to see “Barefoot in the Park” when I was 4 or 5 years old. As an old man, I watch “All the President’s Men” any time I run across it. As actor, director, and founder of the Sundance Film Festival, Robert Redford has left a gigantic legacy.

“Every time I listen to a lawyer-trained representative saying we should criminalize free speech in some way, I think to myself, that law school failed.” -Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor

I seem to remember a Supreme Court case involving a bakery and a gay couple who wanted to order a wedding cake.

Second of all, McDonald’s Gold sauce is the best!

He doesn’t seem to be stable, a genius, or pro free speech.

Patel published his enemies list in his book “Government Gangsters” (2022).

“Math is hard.”

And that’s what’s known as a dictator.

Vance is auditioning to be “America’s Hitler”.

Don’t surrender the first amendment in advance.

Trump had an extremely rare moment of self awareness.

I wish I had another Bezos property to cancel.

Tony Gilroy has said that he is done with “Star Wars”. Lucasfilm should be approaching the “Andor” writers Dan Gilroy, Beau Willimon, and Tom Bissell about developing new projects. Lucasfilm has instead chosen to put their creative future in the hands of Dave Filoni and Simon Kinberg.

Cristin Milioti won a well deserved Emmy for “The Penguin”.

Dan Gilroy WON the Emmy for writing the “Andor” episode “Welcome to the Rebellion”!

Janus Metz did not win the Emmy for directing the “Andor” episode “Who Are You?”

Without a doubt.

Fascists can say whatever they want, and if they become famous enough, they can even be lauded by Democratic luminaries. On the other hand, criticizing the racist, misogynist, and medically dangerous things that a fascist said can get you fired. The US may be a fascist dictatorship post Trump.
